Create-Your-Own Summer Internship

After all I’ve been through this quarter I decided that I would not do C.P.E. (Clinical Pastoral Education) this summer. C.P.E. is basically an chaplaincy internship. They can be done at a hospice, hospital, nursing home, community center, etc. I want to do hospice but not this time. I’m not ready. I need to heal and recover and I want a summer to do me. So I sat down with Pastor AJ and put together a plan. I’ve added a few things to the list since then:

Launch the Women’s Group

Launch the Resume/Job Posting Ministry

Community Partnerships – Angel’s Touch, BIAMA, City Council Meetings

Preaching – Once per month

Teach a Bible Study – Once per month

Pastoral Care – Office hours twice per week

Shadowing PAJ – Go with AJ to do ministry stuff and talk about what to and how to and when to, etc.

Update the church website and get the blog going.

Get people in place to do the administration stuff after while I am doing my field placement next year.

That ought to learn me and make the summer fly by. I’m nervous about preaching and teaching. I’m afraid I will not be good but I also know it will be okay.
